Zhu Yunpeng explained: "It's actually very simple. It's just that you may not be paying attention for a while. Ru Yunpeng first gave a psychological hint, implying that Princess Abile should know these truths, and then continued: "This princess has to bring some entourage when she goes to a foreign country. When all the bigwigs travel, they can't always bow down to everything, they have to have someone who saddles before and after the horse, leading the horse and pedaling. Some trivial matters have to be handled by me, so I can't distract the energy of the big guys and affect the work effect. ”

Abilee nodded her head in understanding. Then ask the last person and ask, "So who are you?"

The last remaining Zhou Daring suddenly felt a little apprehensive, after all, he was brought by his relatives and knew a little about the truth. Although when Zhan Fu talked about his opinions when he met with him before, he said that it was like a live-action game, but he knew that this was not a game, it was a real gun. Although his relatives of the mercenary leader let him behave well, saying that the benefits must be indispensable, but that is a staff officer, can he be competent? Forget it, when the sky falls, there is a tall man on top of it, so he still shrinks behind and lives carefully, so he said: "I am Zhou Daring, an assistant-level staff officer." ”

As soon as the assistant level exited, it immediately attracted the attention of all the audience. Assistant level, the lowest level, why would Song Guo send such a person?

Facing all kinds of doubtful, contemptuous, or suspicious eyes, Zhou Daring suddenly felt a little annoyed, what kind of eyes are you looking at, what's wrong with the assistant level, the assistant level eats your rice? Hey, 300,000 yuan a month, it seems that you really eat their rice. Then change one, what's wrong with the assistant level, haven't you seen "Magic Apprentices"? A group of magisters is not as good as a magic apprentice, and their group of storytellers may not be at the top of our assistant level.

Thinking of this, Zhou Daring was angry in his heart, and he said boldly: "Everyone must have some questions about why they sent me an assistant-level staff officer here. ”

As he spoke, he looked around, saw that he had attracted the attention of the audience, and then said: "Before coming here, the top leader of the Song Kingdom specially summoned me over to encourage me. ”

Anyway, it's bragging, let's brag big, the supreme leader summoned me, can you still go and confirm it? What Zhou Daring didn't know was that at the end of this meeting, Ebili sent someone to send a letter of thanks to Song Guo full of sincere feelings, thanking them for their help to Atlantis, and the friendship between the two countries will last forever in the future, and so on. In this regard, the high-level officials of the Song Kingdom were also puzzled by the second monk, and checked the recent intersection of the two countries, which seemed to be Princess Abilee's visit to learn the method of winning the war. It is estimated that it was thanks to that incident, it was a trivial matter, and the high-level officials of the Song Kingdom didn't care, so the misunderstanding continued.

Zhou Daring continued: "The top leader told me that this help was mainly for senior staff officers. The reason why I was sent here is because the older generation has already formed their own minds, and they have a fixed way of thinking, but they are generally upright. And our assistant level is still young, our thinking is relatively active, and it is easy to win with odds. The top leader encouraged me to be proactive, open up my thinking, come up with more ideas, and not be afraid to make mistakes. ”

After hearing this, Abili couldn't help but nod: "The leader of your country is thoughtful, and he is really well-intentioned!"

After everyone had introduced themselves, Abile asked his assistant to explain the current situation in Atlantis.

Everyone listened to it with relish, and they should have listened to the story, and they had roughly listened to Zhan Fu's introduction before, and they already had a calculation in their hearts, so they didn't panic. Everyone's demeanor was seen by Abile, and their hearts were more relieved. Sure enough, he is worthy of being a storyteller-level staff officer from the Celestial Empire, and the things that are anxious about his country are a piece of cake for others, and it is estimated that he usually solves similar things. Believe it or not, people don't even frown.

After the assistant finished explaining, Princess Abilee said, "I hope that all the staff officers will give advice and talk about the solution." ”

Everyone present glanced at each other, first pretending to be contemplative and thinking for a few minutes, then humbling each other, and finally recommending Zhao Yi, the oldest with the seniority, to speak first.

Zhao Yi got up and first bowed deeply to Princess Ebilee, and then said, "Thanks to Her Royal Highness Princess Ebilee's appreciation, we can come and show what we have learned." Everyone here is a master of the art of war, but it is not a way to be so humble, so you are welcome, let me talk about my views first, and throw bricks and stones. Please correct any inaccuracies. ”

After speaking, Zhao Yi walked out of his seat and paced slowly in the open space next to the conference table, and said slowly: "When I was old, I had the honor to learn the art of war from the family teacher's generation, because the family teacher is indifferent to fame and fortune, so I won't mention the name of the family teacher. During the study period, I 'hung my head' and 'cone thorn stock', studied hard, achieved a small success, was recognized by my teacher, and traveled down the mountain. It took me three years to 'visit the mountains and rivers, the customs, and the details of the world's interests', and finally get the recognition of the Song court and have the opportunity to display my talents. Princess Abile, my view of your country coincides with what I have learned. What I learned was the art of combining vertical and horizontal. ”

As he spoke, Zhao Yi looked around, and a look of pride appeared on his face, this kind of look Princess Iberi often saw when those who had expertise talked about their profession.

Seeing that he had succeeded in attracting the attention of the people, Zhao Yi explained: "What is the meaning of combining vertical and horizontal? The essence of combining vertical and horizontal is a military art in which countries unite according to different permutations and combinations through diplomatic means to form different military alliances and then carry out confrontation. In fact, there are two different methods of combining vertical and horizontal, and they are two sides of the same body in the art of war. To put it simply, it is to unite many weak countries to resist a strong country in order to prevent the annexation of the powerful country. It's exactly the same as the current rebellion against the Seven Kingdoms. ”

Speaking of this, Zhao Yi looked at everyone's expressions, and saw that Princess Iberi and many high-ranking officials of the Atlantis Kingdom nodded seriously in agreement, and showed strong interest in Zhao Yi's way of coping. Looking at Zhan Fu and the mercenaries, some of them expressed appreciation, they should be satisfied with their acting skills, and some of their expressions were full of banter, as if they felt funny about their teasing of these Atlantean laymen, and it was inconvenient to show it too much, so they were holding back.

Looking at my peers as cross talk artists, some of them stroked their long hair and nodded appreciatively. Some of them talked sideways to their companions, and whispered, "Zhao Lao's ability has not diminished back then, he should be talking about "The Biography of Su Qin Lie", right?" "Yes, it should also refer to some of the content of the "Warring States Zongheng Family Letter" to supplement and improve, when Zhao Lao said this, it was an empty alley, and they were all gathered in front of the radio,...... Tut, you see that Zhao Lao's gestures and hand-eye cooperation are still so magnificent, I can't imagine that after so many years, he is still the same style. "Of course, the ability from elementary school, which is engraved in the bones, can be easily thrown away. "Zhao Lao has a high profile, the next drama is not easy to sing, we have to cheer up." "Haha, exactly, I'm also enthusiastic now, how many years have I not felt this way?" The slight bows and whispers of the storytellers are a different picture in the eyes of the Atlanteans, which is a serious analysis of the situation in their country, and a recognition of Zhao's old tactics in the art of war.

I only listened to Zhao Yi continue to explain: "And the art of war that is-for-tat with Hezong is Lianheng." Lianheng refers to allowing some small countries to rely on a strong country and attack other weak countries in order to achieve the goal of annexing and expanding land. 'Together', that is, 'uniting the weak to attack the strong'; 'Lianheng', that is, 'one strong thing to attack the weak'. To put it simply, the combination of vertical and horizontal means to solve the strategic problem of how to win allies and expand abroad through political struggle. Those small nations are ready to unite against you, and it is not convenient for your country to start a war lightly and avoid being besieged. But the five fingers of one hand are not the same length, and it must be impossible for them to have one heart within the association. Your country can secretly contact and support one, two, or even three or five small countries. First, when the Consortium wants to confront your country, let them raise objections in the Consortium and maintain the status quo of temporary stability and peace, and second, let them go against other neighboring small countries, promising them that the money, food, and land they have obtained will be their own, causing their internal strife. When they are weakened by cannibalism, it will be the day when your country will become hegemonic. The so-called 'foreign affairs, the big can be the king, the small can be peaceful', this is the art of vertical and horizontal shutting down, looking at the world. ”

After listening to Zhao Yi's explanation, Abili was very excited, stood up and took the lead in applauding, and exclaimed: "Sure enough, he is worthy of being a storyteller-level staff officer of the Celestial Empire, and his opinions are really different." Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years, and the headache of my country is like cooking a small fresh meal and picking up mustard in your eyes. Zhao Lao's plan is really good, let's follow the ......"

Princess Ambili was about to say that she would follow Zhao Lao's plan, when an untimely voice interrupted her: "Princess Ambiley, the so-called shop around, choose the best, don't jump to conclusions so quickly." ”

Everyone looked over, only to see an older "storyteller-level staff officer" Qian Liang standing up, only to see him arch his hand to Zhao Yi and say, "Brother Zhao, the little brother is abrupt." ”

Zhao Yi also arched his hand and said: "It's okay, it's a big matter for the soldiers, you should be cautious." After speaking, Zhao Yi paced back to his seat.

Qian Liang then continued: "It is undeniable that Zhao Lao's technique of connecting horizons is a good way to deal with the current crisis. But this kind of vertical and horizontal technique has a fatal flaw. ”
